Chapter 66: The Big Killer Is Born in This Century
Cai Jing, who was already partial, became more and more dissatisfied with him. Not only did he always scold and abuse him, but he also ignored him, the eldest son who had made great contributions, and trained the fourth son Cai Sui as his successor, letting him serve in the Cai Mansion.
His position was extremely embarrassing.
So he separated in separate houses in a fit of anger, while thinking about proving his ability to outperform his old father Cai Jing;
On the other hand, he hated Cai Sui's half-brothers who instigated the relationship between him and Cai Jing's father and son to the core, and repeatedly tried to kill Cai Sui and others!
Naturally, Shangshu Youchengbai Shizhong, Shangshu Wangfu and others who were sandwiched between Cai You and Cai Jing were very aware of these matters.
So when they saw Cai You standing up to attack Cai Jing, everyone kept their mouths shut, not daring to intervene in the love-hate relationship between father and son.
Song Huizong was naturally even more happy to watch the show. He leaned back and took a sip of wine happily.
This situation made Cai Jing feel embarrassed and angry. He glared at Cai You with evil eyes and said:
"Although I am getting older, my ears and eyes are sharp, and my body and bones are strong! I can't discipline those unfilial descendants, so I won't bother with Grand Scholar Cai!"
"Since you are in good health, I will feel at ease!"
Cai You was scolded so that he had no temper and just kept smiling at Cai Jing.
Jiang Chen was stunned as he watched from the side!
He knew that Cai Jing and his eldest son Cai You didn't get along, but he didn't expect that the two father and sons would be so at odds with each other.
And just when he was filled with disbelief, Song Huizong Zhao Ji directly made the decision:
"Since Cai Xianggong and Ju An (Cai You) both said so, then according to Ju An's report, Wang Wen and Wang Bing will be imprisoned to investigate their lawlessness! Cai Ji closed his door and thought about his past for three days!
In order to avoid external misinformation and damage to Xianggong Cai’s dignity, this matter has been revealed and no one is allowed to discuss it in the future!"
Um?
No further discussion?
Aren't the officials sincerely trying to protect Jiang Chen?
When Cai Jing, Jia Xiang and Wang Fu heard this, they were all depressed and unwilling, but they could only bow and respond!
…
When Song Huizong saw that Cai Jing and others looked reluctant, he ordered Jiang Chen: "The face of the Grand Prime Minister is related to the state and should not be taken lightly! Although you are not wrong, good minister, you are rude! Don't be happy.
Pour a glass of wine to Xiang Cai to apologize?"
While talking, Song Huizong Zhao Ji gave Jiang Chen a 'loving' look.
Well--
Jiang Chen was very flattered.
I wondered in my heart: Did I misunderstand Song Huizong? He didn't want to sell me? Then why did he go against his promise and let Liang Ling Office sell Jinbo Yuye?
Jiang Chen couldn't understand Song Huizong's thoughts.
But when he saw Song Huizong helping him, he didn't dare to neglect him. After bowing gratefully to Song Huizong, he stepped forward and poured a full cup of wine for Cai Jing. He held it up with admiration and said:
"My mentor once told me that there are so many people studying calligraphy in the world, they can be called the founders of calligraphy, and the only ones who have no successors are the thin gold bodies of the official family;
However, if the handwritings of the ancients and those who have mastered calligraphy in the world are put together in one place, and one can choose the one that is most pleasing to the eye, it must be the calligraphy written by Prime Minister Cai!
Therefore, I have always admired Prime Minister Cai very much. If there is any unintentional offense, please forgive me, Prime Minister Cai. Thank you very much! Mr. Cai, please drink this cup to the full. I apologize to you!"
After saying that, Jiang Chen directly raised the wine glass in front of Cai Jing.
Hearing what Jiang Chen said, Zhang Shangying and Zheng Juzhong nodded in approval. Although they were at odds with Cai Jing and looked down on many of Cai Jing's actions, they were all convinced of his calligraphy skills.
When Song Huizong heard Jiang Chen praising him in public, he looked at Empress Zheng, Wang Guifei and Liu Guifei proudly and showily, and even winked at them frivolously.
It made Empress Zheng and her daughters all purse their lips and laugh.
But Cai Jing couldn't laugh at this time no matter what. He took the wine glass with a displeased face and said: "Master, I have given you too much praise!"
After saying that, he drank the wine as soon as he raised his neck, and directly expressed to Song Huizong that he would no longer pursue the matter.
When Song Huizong saw it, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "Okay! Prime Minister Cai has a good drinker and a good spirit!"
“Prime Minister Cai is so kind!”
"Having such a great minister is truly a blessing to hundreds of officials and a blessing to all people!"
The tense atmosphere relaxed instantly, and everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Bai Shizhong and others even took the opportunity to flatter Cai Jing.
…
But although Cai Jing couldn't care about Jiang Chen's disrespect and hatred for beating him up, he didn't intend to let him go just like that, and directly glanced at Lin Lingsu, the bull riding Taoist in charge of the Shenxiao Sect.
Since Jiang Chen uses Taoist theology to please the nobles in the harem to silence him, then he will control Tao with Tao!
Lin Lingsu has always been in collusion with Cai Jing and others. After receiving the look, she smiled directly at Jiang Chen and said:
"I once served in the Heavenly Court with the Emperor Changsheng, but I have never heard of a third-grade immortal being drunk. I wonder if you can use it to show me?
Also, I wonder if you have some clues about the Taoist secret code that the officials asked you to write silently?"
When Yang Jian heard this, he immediately frowned.
He understood that Lin Lingsu was planning to destroy Jiang Chen from the ground up. If Jiang Chen gave an inappropriate answer and was caught by Lin Lingsu and aroused the suspicion of the officials, then he, the recommended person, would probably die soon.
.
So, after gritting his teeth, he risked offending Cai Jing and stood up.
However, Jiang Chen had already spoken at this time, and smiled at Lin Lingsu and said: "Whether the immortal drunkenness is true or not, when the lanterns come on tomorrow night, Master Lin and all of you will naturally know! As for the Taoist secret code, the Annals of the Wilderness..."
Jiang Chen suddenly paused when he said this, turned his head and saluted Song Huizong respectfully:
"Officials, in order to confirm the authenticity of the Dao Sect Secret Code, and to avoid anyone criticizing Wei Chen for fabricating and tampering with the Secret Code, Wei Chen kindly requests to dictate it to the officials in person every day.
If the officials want to keep this Taoist secret code in the palace, they can just have it copied and transcribed."
Um?
Tell the officials in person every day?
Then wouldn’t you be able to meet the saint every day?
Cai Jing, Jia Xiang and others immediately frowned.
However, Lin Lingsu gave Cai Jing a calm look. He had read through Taoist classics and was very confident that he would be able to question Jiang Chen later on whether he would come to Taiwan or not.
But after Song Huizong heard Jiang Chen's words, he immediately became excited, nodded in agreement and said: "Okay! Good minister, you can start directly! Let my beloved concubine and all your beloved ministers also listen to your secret code of Taoism.
.”
"I obey the order!"
After Jiang Chen bowed, he directly started talking about the prehistoric version of the book with added materials.
From Pangu opening the sky and splitting the earth to the Lich Catastrophe, and then to the Romance of the Gods, the Immortal Emperor was directly included in the list of saints.
Song Huizong and everyone else were so mesmerized that no one dared to breathe.
However, when Fengshenyan reached the exciting beginning, Jiang Chen suddenly stopped and complained to Song Huizong: "In the official family, I have a throat discomfort. I'm afraid I can only talk about this today!"
